No, box elder bugs are not bad. The insects in question (Boisea trivittata) tend to focus their feeding upon such prolific seed-producing woody plants as box elder trees (Acer negundo). They will be irritating to human populations generally only if they swarm on sun-warmed walls or try to find ways to overwinter indoors.
